soggy; the greatest degree of heat
will not scorch them and by
greasing them pie may be
baked on them better than on
tin or earthen ware; the under
crust will be found perfectly
hard and crisp similar to the top.
Napkins are soft and pliable as
linen and will not fade unless

In BRIEF, AND TO THE PoNT.-Dyspepsia
is dreadful. Disordered liver is misery.
Indigestion is foe to good nature.
The human digestive apparatus is one of
the most complicated and wonderful things
In existence. II is easily put out of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food,
bad cookery, mental worry, late hours, ir-
regular habits, and many other things
which ought not to be, have made the
American people nation of dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flower has done a
wonderful work in reforming this sad bus
mess and making the American people so
healthy that they can enjoy their meals
and be happy.
Remember: - No happiness without
health. But Green's August Flower brings
